The use OF a conservative Upper House,
whose committees are composed Of men skilled
in the pubic service has been made clearly
apparent during the last few days OF this Con-
Cress. As every one knows tho ReprcSenta-
lives hold back the most important bills until
tho session was nearly ended. and then dumped
them down ON the Senate full of riders and
Jobs. The result would have beer, If expert
cnccd Senators on the conference committees
had not stood in the way that bad measures
would have become laws. or an extra session
would have been necessary in order that the
whole Senate and the President might act with
deliberation. 1t is, Of course, greatly to be
regretted that important laws should ever be
the result OF the legislative judgment of a few
mon no matter how honest or ailful. But
since such work must he done, it is well 10 have

A Man to BE UOurDed.

There has just died in New Albany, In.
diana, a man of wealth and influence,
whose funeral will be attended by 5000
Workingmen, mourning for him as just
man who appreciated the responsibility of
wealth and sympathized with labor.
Mr.. Depauw, it is said, always carefully
separated business from charity, but he
knew exactly when and how charitable
feeling should take the place Of business
principle. As an instance Of this, it is re-
lated that when dsbression of trade made
It necessary to shut down rolling mill in
which he owned a-half interest, Mr.. De-
pauw assumed responsibility for running
the whole mill, bearing all losses and taking
any profits. He lost very heavily at first,
but al the end of the year the balance was
in his favor.
This case is referred to, not because it is
exceptional, but because it is not often that
the details of many similar cases are
brought before the public and people are
apt to forget that if employers do not al.
ways raise wages to the point that profits
Seem to justify, neither do they invariably
shut down their factories when the bust
ness ceases to be profitable.
1t Is an argument against the system of
profit sharing that right to share profits
implies duty to bear losses, and the men
cannot meet that duty; but the reasoning
implies that by assuming the profits the
employer also assumes the losses, and 50 he
does, along with the responsibility for
them. His capital is q sacred trust, an
engine powerful for good, and proper care
for its preservation justiies his refusal to
risk it in times Of depression. But
charity someone's justilies that risk and
occasionally men are found who will sink
the business principles that have become
the habit Of life time, from an impulse of
charity to their fell0w.men. II we had
more men Of this stamp, labor troubles
would be less serious.

DR.. d. +. WRIGHT, OF the Tennessee State
Board Of Health, has submitted . report on
the hay fever resorts OF East Tennessee. He
says that there are many resorts on the south
coast Of Lake Superior, which are exemp.
from hay fever, except when the wind is
from the south, seeming to show that parti.
cles carried in the air from land under
cultivation are the cause OF hay fever. In
confirmation of this field was sown with
various grass seeds for the purpose OF raising
hay crop. A week before the outbreak OF
hay fever the grasses had not yet been in
bloom, and when they did bloom the heavy
rains prevented the diffusion OF pollen In
the air, but when the weather cleared, and
the southwest wind blew directly from the
hay field to the hotel, the outbreak occurred.
DR.. Wright says that seaside places In Brit.
ish Americr, as st. Johns, New Brunswick,
and Halifax, Nova Scotia, seems to offer
most complete exemption.
